i have not thoroughly studied the clamAV source code, while doing so i found that openssl dependecny has been introduced in clamAV, i would like to know what does that mean in contrast to clamav software and any other software that says so.

Does that mean that clamav code is encrypted in some form with openssl and cannot be studied thoroughly like whats its scan functions, search functions actually do internally etc.

cl_initialize_crypto();

int cl_initialize_crypto(void)
{
    SSL_load_error_strings();
    SSL_library_init();
    OpenSSL_add_all_digests();
    OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms();
    OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers();
    ERR_load_crypto_strings();

    return 0;
}

how to i study what is happening inside
SSL_load_error_strings();
and all other functions, or are they not that important.
Thanks
